5 SPRING CLEANING TIPS TO ELIMINATE CLUTTER

Spring cleaning leaves your home looking clean and your mind feeling refreshed. One of the most important aspects of truly cleaning out is eliminating junk & clutter. A clutter-free home will allow you more physical space and mental clarity. Eliminating junk & clutter is a process, but worth it in the end. Check out our expert tips to streamline your spring cleaning!

Clear the Surfaces

Clutter on tables, floors, shelves, and other surfaces can sneak up on you before you realize it. Once you clear off these surfaces, you realize how much space you truly have. Do this by putting things away or tossing them. This not only helps in terms of clutter but also for cleanliness – You can now clean the dust and dirt that has accumulated on the surfaces under your junk!

Find a Spot for Everything

One of the most frustrating things is doing a deep clean of your home, only to feel the clutter creep back in shortly after. To make sure your home stays clean & organized in the long term, everything you own needs to have a designated “spot” where it belongs. Shelves, drawers, bins, and other organizing storage units are the key to this! Remember to organize logically and think about how frequently items are used.

When in Doubt, Throw it Out

One of the best strategies for cleaning out is to eliminate items you don’t need. If you haven’t used an item in recent memory and have no plans to, it might be in your best interest to move it along. “Throwing out” an item does not have to mean putting it in the trash. Many junk removal services help with the donation or recycling of salvageable items!

Clean Everywhere

If you’re committing to spring cleaning, hit all areas of your home… Even the ones you’ve been pushing aside. Whether it’s your attic, basement, or garage that has become a dumping ground, there is no better time to tackle it than now! Clearing out the old electronics, appliances, clothing, and more that has accumulated over the years will free up space for the items you want to keep & that need a home.

3 REASONS TO RENT A DUMPSTER THIS SUMMER

We are in the midst of the “dog days of summer”. These days are often hot and long, allowing for plenty to be accomplished. If your home or business has an abundance of waste that needs to be removed, now would be an ideal time. Here are ten reasons to rent a dumpster from a junk removal company before Summer ends!

You Just Started Or Are About To Start A Project

Any residential or commercial property conducting a large-scale project will encounter countless debris. The best way to dispose of project debris efficiently is by tossing it in a dumpster as soon as the debris presents itself. With that being said, small-scale projects still produce an abundance of debris so those projects could benefit from dumpster usage too. Having a dumpster handy when you are tearing down a part of your home or in the middle of a demolition project will also go a long way in terms of safety. Debris, glass, wood, wires, and other potentially hazardous materials left around can be dangerous to everyone in the vicinity. Dumpsters can reduce the risk of these items causing an injury by keeping the area decluttered.

Increased Productivity

Imagine trying to get a project done with piles of debris, broken glass, etc. around. Not only can it be distracting, but it can also slow you done. It is always better to get projects done on time and knowing what to do with unwanted pieces allows everyone to focus better.

Money Saver

Not only do dumpsters save you time, they can also save you money! Oftentimes, the company that allows you to rent a dumpster will haul it away for you when the time comes. You should not have to hire more than one company when it comes to dumpster services.

TIPS FOR ORGANIZING YOUR ATTIC

Attics are well known for being a dumping ground for seasonal decor and clothing, unused furniture, family memorabilia, children’s toys, and other items that you want to keep but are not used on a regular basis. Over the years, all of these items pile up in your attic and before you know it, you’re out of storage space and can’t even wade through the mess up there! By going through and organizing these items on a regular basis, you’ll be able to keep the junk at a minimum and allow extra storage space for items that matter the most.

Before digging into your next attic organization project, consider these tips!

Make a Plan

An action plan for cleaning and organizing your attic is going to make a world of difference. If you’re lucky, you have an extremely spacious attic, but that’s not always the case. As the area of your home with typically the least amount of space, it’s best to remove all of the items in your attic and place them elsewhere in your home so you have more space to sort through and organize everything. We recommend utilizing your driveway, garage, or deck for this!

Sort Through Everything

As you are going through all of the items from your attic, place them into three piles – keep, trash, & donate. This will keep everything as organized as possible and will give you a better overview of the items you have to put back into your attic. For any of the items that you are no longer going to utilize, give All Day Junk Removal a call today at (978) 682-2040 to schedule a fast & convenient pick-up!

Consider Shelving, Bins & Labels

Now that you’ve gone through and organized all of the items that were previously in your attic, it’s time to decide how you are going to organize them once you bring them back up to your attic. If you have enough space, shelving is a great way to save space and organize your items. If not, bins and labels are a great place to start! Labeling your storage bins and boxes will help you remember what’s where without having to dig through everything.

CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS REMOVAL: QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR JUNK REMOVAL COMPANY

If you’ve ever had construction work done on your home for a renovation or remodel, you know just how much debris can be produced. If you’re getting started on a new home project, you’ll soon see that debris removal is a critical step in construction. Instead of taking on the enormous task yourself, it’s often best to outsource the job to a professional junk removal company. When you begin looking at options, there are a few important questions that you should ask the company before you get started. Here are a few things to think about:

What will the pricing be?

When you’re asking about prices, you can get a general idea over the phone, but for a proper appraisal and estimate, a good removal firm will come directly to your site to assess the extent of the work needed. They’ll look at the volume of debris likely to be produced and will be able to give a close estimate for all the work involved, including any recurring removals. Don’t forget that an estimate will give you an idea of what to expect but leave room in your budget for unforeseen costs.

What materials can you take away?

Never assume that all junk removal services can handle construction debris. This type of junk often needs to be disposed of in specialized ways. Not to mention, it can be bulky and heavy. It’s best to ask first about what types of materials the company can remove before you enlist their services. All Day Junk Removal takes EVERYTHING from Massachusetts & Southern NH construction sites. 

What happens to the materials once they’re removed?

Even if you’re not incredibly environmentally conscious, it’s always a good idea to ask how the materials are dealt with once they are removed from the property. Does the company offer recycling services? Do they take everything to the same landfill? A company that puts more care into how the materials are dealt with will often be a company that pays attention to details and will be more conscientious.

Will you come regularly?

A construction project that will take weeks or months will create a ton of construction debris. It isn’t always feasible to leave everything until the end of the job, so recurring pick-ups are something you should ask about. Many services offer the option to schedule recurring removal for the duration of the project. This is also important for keeping the area clean in a residential neighborhood and for public safety if harsh chemicals or materials are used.

Do you offer site cleanup?

The major job of a junk removal company is just that: to remove junk. But at a construction site, simply removing debris doesn’t necessarily cover all of the needs. Many removal companies will also offer site clean-ups, meaning that after they remove the junk, they’ll also clean up any dust or small bits that are remaining, so the site is ready to be completed.

Construction Debris Removal in MA & NH

Getting the best service is of the utmost importance when it comes to junk removal at a construction site. The debris can be costly and difficult to remove yourself; asking a prospective service the above questions will help you take care of your construction debris quickly and efficiently.

HOW TO REMOVE HAZARDOUS HOUSEHOLD ITEMS

Hazardous household items can refer to a litany of items but for this blog we will simply be focusing on batteries, light bulbs, and paint. Improper disposal of these items can pose hazardous situations for the environment and even the property. At some point, it will be time to remove one or some of these items from your home. Here are the best ways to handle removing these particular items.

What To Do With Dead Batteries

When a battery inside a smoke detector or television remote dies, it may be convenient to toss that battery in the trash and replace it with a new one. Most batteries are reusable and recyclable so when batteries are thrown into the trash and sent to a landfill, it is a wasted opportunity. Not to mention batteries in a landfill can produce a toxic environment and start fires. When batteries are dead, recharge them or make sure they get recycled.

What To Do with Broken Light Bulbs

Light bulbs are another hazardous item that should never be tossed into a pile of regular trash. Broken light bulbs should be placed in a bag and set outside for a recycling team to collect.

What To Do with Unwanted Paint Cans

Paint cans full of paint are heavy and can be tricky to throw away. If you find old buckets full of paint that you do not want around anymore, one way to remove it is to take it to a local waste community. You can also hire a junk removal company to come and take it away. Junk removal companies can oftentimes re-purpose the paint and put it to use.
